Watch Two of the Latest Real Ghost Stories! The Ghost Boy Bridge 
Ghost sightings, Witches, and Druidic ceremonies? Could this be the scariest road in America? Named for the long gone settlement of Clinton, Clinton Road in West Milford, Passaic County, New Jersey has scared more than a few people for decades. Cut through a heavily wooded area with almost no houses, this road lets your imagination run wild. You’ll have plenty of time to muster the courage to travel north on Clinton Road as the traffic light at Route 23 & Clinton Road also holds the record for being the longest light in America. Once onto Clinton Road, get ready for a truly paranormal experience. 
Near the Clinton Reservoir you’ll find a bridge and a sharp “dead man’s curve”. As the legend goes, if you toss a coin into the water a boy will toss it back. Not terrifying enough? People also claim to have seen the boy’s reflection in the water. Still other's claim to have been pelted with coins. It’s not a real Druidic Temple, but rather an iron smelter left over from the 18th century. The temple story stuck though, and today it’s fenced off to keep all of the ghost hunters from getting hurt. It is creepy at night and reports of those having ceremonies around it are not uncommon. 
Although nothing but the foundation remains today, a three-story castle-like structure once stood in these woods. When the stone walls still stood the place was a hotbed for the Satanic and the occult. Who knows, maybe it still is, so don’t go there after dark... If the little boy throwing your change back at your face or the Satan worshipers dancing around the Cross Castle haven’t scared you off yet, let the Ku Klux Klan send you on your way. Clinton Road has long been known as a hangout for the Klan ever since the German American Bund held their little hate-camps in the area. 
In closing, don’t forget all the other creepy things people claim to have seen on this road. Mythical cross-bred creatures (supposedly the result of Jungle Habitat’s closing in the 1970's), people dressed in strange outfits disappearing, and ghost vehicles chasing cars off the road. All on Clinton Road. |
